I have a webpage (see above) where I am using the new bricks filter to show post based on their categories. Theses categories have been also translated using Polylang.

Since I translated them, they are now showing in both language in the filter leading to a lot of duplicate. This duplication only occurs after using the filter once.

Thanks in advance for your help,

Beta or Stable version that? This issue was present in 1.9.8 beta but was said to be fixed in 1.9.8. Sorry for nitpicking

After testing the stable unfortunately all Polylang issues of the beta are still present in the stable version. Do you have this issue? All secondary lang archives disappeared / can’t be reached anymore [SOLVED: Polylang - All archives are broken of the primary language - language switch not working - #5 by Mike8040](https://forum.bricksbuilder.io/t/solved-polylang-all-archives-are-broken-of-the-primary-language-language-switch-not-working/22184/5)

//Edit: The issue I described is fixed. I had the include/exclude condition still in place on the live page where it leads to this issue again. One needs to take care of not having exclude **and** include conditions for the query at the same time. Though I did exclude different categories then I included. Maybe this is something to check on your end too?

I don’t know for all the other issues you mentionned with Polylang. It sounds like different issues than this one and each of them need to have a dedicated thread.

Let’s focus our attention on this simple bug for now and hear from the Bricks team about it

I have set the thread to WAIT because I wanted to wait for the result of your discussion first. Would you please send us access data and a link to this thread to [help@bricksbuilder.io](mailto:help@bricksbuilder.io) so that we can take a look at it?
